"We can deny our heritage and our history, but we cannot escape responsibility for the result. There is no way for a citizen of a republic to abdicate his responsibilities." Edward R. Murrow

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a cognitive bias where people wrongly overestimate their knowledge or ability in a specific area. It is thought that a lack of self-awareness prevents them from accurately assessing their own skills. In my opinion, this describes 95% to 100% of US government employees. Strangely enough - this concept could also be applied to an organization, for instance the US government. However, if the Dunning-Kruger effect is applied to an organization, does the concept need a new name? Such as the "dumb-kibbutz effect". (Definition - kibbutz: a community settlement organized under collectivist principles).
